Kaka still reigns as cash king

Orlando City midfielder Kaka is the highest-paid Major League Soccer player for a third straight year, according to figures released by the MLS Players Union on Tuesday.

The former Brazil, AC Milan and Real Madrid midfielder, who has not played since picking up a hamstring injury in Orlando's season-opening match in early March, will earn $7.2 million in 2017.

At the opposite end of the pay scale, Kaka's teammates Pierre Da Silva, Moussa Sane and Mason Stajduhar all make the league reserve minimum of $53,000.
